Lyrics If I Could Change It - Maxi Priest

If I Could Change It

It’s crazy how we sit and think
everything’s gonna last forever
Then it changes
All you thought you ever knew
was nothing more than the child in you
How it raised me
I thought I knew it all
Never learned from my pitfalls
I was Mr Know-It-All
Now I’m locked up in this 4 by 4
If I could change it
If I could turn back the hands of time
I’ll rearrange it
Be a better man than I am
If I could change it
If I could turn back the hands of time
I’ll rearrange it
Be a better man than I am
Holding back the tears of yesterday
I can see it all so clear
The things I let just slip away
Now I see all my mistakes
Try your best to understand
As a man, you gotta make a plan
The road is there for you to see
You gotta rule your destiny
I thought I knew it all
Never learned from my pitfalls
I was Mr Know-It-All
Now I’m locked up in this 4 by 4
If I could change it
If I could turn back the hands of time
I’ll rearrange it
Be a better man than I am
If I could change it
If I could turn back the hands of time
I’ll rearrange it
Be a better man than I am
If I could change it
Only If I can change it
If I could change it
If I could change it
